More Meetings About The Future “Inner Loop” Highway To The East Of Bryan/College Station And A Request To Brazos County Commissioners To Get Citizen Input

For the second and third times this month, there are public meetings involving the future “inner loop east” highway that will be built to the east of Bryan/College Station. Opponents to the highway are meeting Wednesday (November 20) from 6:30 until 8:30 p.m. at the Bryan High School blue campus auditorium. That’s according to an e-mail sent to WTAW News by a group of residents and landowners called “No East Loop”. Click HERE to read and download the news release from the group “No East Loop”. That follows an open house Tuesday (November 19) hosted by the B/CS metropolitan planning organization (MPO) on future transportation projects that includes the inner east loop. The open house is taking place from 4:30 until 6:30 at the Brazos Center. Click HERE to read and download the MPO’s Mobility 2050: Bryan/College Station Metropolitan Transportation Plan. References to the “inner loop east” are on pages 28-29 as items #92, #113, #117, and #118. A public speaker at Tuesday’s (November 19) Brazos County commission meeting called on the commissioners court to get their own citizen input. John Book brought up that an open house held earlier this month by the Texas department of transportation provided “misinformation or miscommunication” about the project. Book also said “a groundswell of concern” from residents who live in the affected area “requires us as a county to have that conversation, to have it out in public and in a vocal way, more than just on a website or as a come and go (MPO) event” which “is not this body.” Click below to hear comments from John Book during the November 19, 2024 Brazos County commission meeting.  

Bryan ISD School Board Approves Hiring A New Principal At Collegiate High School

The Bryan ISD school board fills one principal vacancy and creates a new opening. Board members unanimously approved the superintendent’s recommendation to move Jane Long intermediate principal Desiree Caperton to Bryan Collegiate High School. Caperton, who is a former assistant principal at Collegiate, was in her third year as Long’s principal. Before that, she was the principal at Fannin elementary for three years. The only board member to make a comment, Ruthie Waller, cheered the recommendation then said Caperton “will begin her reign as only the third principal of Bryan Collegiate High School since it opened in 2007. So it’s a good gig.” Who will take Caperton’s place at Long was not mentioned at the meeting and a Bryan ISD news release stated only that “there is a plan for her (Caperton’s) departure”.
